Royal Gorge

For two summers I lived right down the road from the gorge. It is very beautiful. I do have to say it took me about an hour to get up the courage to walk the bridge. i am deathly scared of heights but in the end it was really worth it. I plan on taking a family vacation back there when my son is a little older.

You have to face the fear and go over the bridge. It’s awesome!

This place is actually not in Colorado Springs, but Canon City. It is a great place to visit either way though. If you go you’ve got to walk across the bridge and back…it’s awesome!

I’ve been here 2-3 times, the views are great!!! Abundant wildlife… However, the Royal Gorge is not for the faint of heart! I’m not “afraid of heights”, but even I felt a lil dizzy looking down!

Went there on a family vacation when I was young. It’s where I discovered I was terrified of heights in fact. Not exactly something one needs to discover when they are over 1000 feet in the air on a suspension bridge that feels like it’s swaying in the wind.

Really beautiful place though.
